Philosophy and Hoops: Conference finals
http://philosophyandhoops.blogspot.com/2009/05/conference-finals.html
A blog about sports (especially basketball), science, and philosophy (and even politics). Tuesday, May 19, 2009. The Lakers have home court, and as we've seen, they appear to turn it on when needed. I've underestimated Denver all year, but even so, I see the LA express sweeping the first two, splitting in Denver, and then finishing it back home. Lakers in 5. As for Cleveland - holy moley. Will Orlando win a game? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). San Luis Obispo, CA, United States.

Philosophy and Hoops: March 2009
http://philosophyandhoops.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
A blog about sports (especially basketball), science, and philosophy (and even politics). Wednesday, March 18, 2009. How to solve our employment crisis and end the 'working poor'.

Philosophy and Hoops: May 2010
http://philosophyandhoops.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
A blog about sports (especially basketball), science, and philosophy (and even politics). Saturday, May 15, 2010. LeBron's future and NBA conference finals picks. In the East, Orlando looks like an unstoppable juggernaut, as lost in the dismissal of the Hawks as gaggers was just how well Orlando played. Boston will face a far better coach this round, and Dwight Howard is the matchup problem Shaquille O'Neal has only a dim memory of being. Orlando in 5. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

http://philosophyandhoops.blogspot.com/2009/10/agency-and-quantum-computing.html
A blog about sports (especially basketball), science, and philosophy (and even politics). Friday, October 23, 2009. Agency and quantum computing. Agency and quantum computing. There are several threads to this post, which I will link together at the end. An illustrative quote from Chalmers, from his “Facing Up to the Problem of Consciousness”:.

Dan's Musings (and other dangerous ideas): An Advent homily
http://danbrowning.blogspot.com/2012/01/advent-homily.html
Dan's Musings (and other dangerous ideas). Thoughts on human flourishing in all its forms. Some of you may have heard that my local congregation, for some unfathomable reason, called on me to deliver a homily during the Advent season this year. For those interested in hearing my thoughts for a change rather than reading them, here's a link to an mp3 recording. Of said homily. (This is my first attempt at podcasting, such as it is, so please let me know if you have any problems accessing the mp3.).
